Today it was fun... a happy Dutch man with a camera ..huge lens and his wife with a pair of good eyes ..but did not want binoculars when I did ask her...No I cannot see through the binoculars... I have good eyes. Yes ...(I still tried)... but... through Binoculars you will see the details...no no I do it without she said...
O.K. So we did start on the spot ..great for picture taking people...it was cloudy , so we did need all the light we could get.
On a certain point we did see a nice green Heron flying in a tree... o.k. she said.. can I check it out through your binocs...of course(I thought...she will surrender!)Oh wauw , what a yellow eyes and soooo much colors...
O.K. I said , I give you some nice Binoculars...try it learn it...
The first half hour a learning process..but after that ...she was good...even the "sneaky" birds in the cloudforest later , right away in the binoculars...
O.K. binoculars sales people...you have another client!!!
And yes world ...there is a new bird watcher born!
